German Political Refugees in the United States During the Period From 1815-1860 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from German Political Refugees in the United States During the Period From 1815-1860
It would be a misapprehension of the situation if one were to infer from this lack of direct and Open influence that our national development was in no wise affected by the presence of so large a number of Germans. The. Mere com mingling of races must of necessity have had its indirect and physiological effects. Moreover, in the economic condition of the country, the German, and in particu lar the German farmer, began at an early date to teach by his example better methods to his neighbor of different stock. But these influences, exercised unconsciously, are hard to trace in detail, and could not have prevented the Ger man element from disappearing without leaving vestiges that history can record with any degree of precision. It was not till the political refugees began to furnish officers to the Teutonic host that the Germans began to play a perceptible part in the struggles of American life.
